    ABOUT OUR CONFERENCE

    Directors & Boards, Family Business Magazine and Private Company Director invite owners, shareholders and board members of privately-held companies to the Private Company Governance Summit 2019, June 5-7, 2019, at the Fairmont, Washington, D.C., Georgetown. 

    The seventh annual Private Company Governance Summit is the only national conference focused exclusively on the unique governance challenges of privately owned businesses, including closely held companies, family owned companies and private equity-owned companies.

    The Private Company Governance Summit is produced byMLR Media. Through digital platforms, print magazines, and live events, MLR provides public and private company directors, leaders and owners of multigenerational family businesses and C-suite executives with the knowledge and skills to be successful in their roles.




    WHO SHOULD ATTEND

    Attendance at this conference is strictly limited to owners, shareholders, family members, in-laws and executives of 75 family businesses/enterprises. The conference is designed to facilitate conversation on important family issues among generations. There is special programming for family business members aged 15-29, and for those who have married-in to the family business.

    The Transitions conference is for family companies and family offices of all sizes.  Approximately one third of attendees represent companies with revenues of under $25 million, one third of attendees have revenues of between $26 million and $300 million; and one third have revenues of over $300 million. And approximately a third of attendees are in the third generation or less; a third were in generations 4 and 5; and third were part of companies more than 6 generations old. What all attendees share is a desire to see their family enterprise grow successfully through generational transitions.

    68% of attendees at Transitions are coming to the conference for the first time; 100% of attendees at our last conference say they’ll attend again, and that they’d recommend the conference to other family members.

    NOTE: All attendees will be vetted to ensure that they are family company leaders, members or shareholders. This event is only for family-run companies or enterprises. Senior advisers to family companies may attend ONLY with the family company they represent.
